Fright Elevator 2: Fallout Shelter

Underground Apocalypse Ride That Sets the Stage for Your Entire Haunt

Building on the success of their #1 best-seller, Fright Elevator 2: Fallout Shelter drops your guests straight into chaos—literally. This immersive elevator ride simulation transports viewers down into a bunker beneath a crumbling, apocalyptic world. Along the way, they’re nearly incinerated by fireballs, shaken by cave-ins, electrocuted by shorted wiring, and scalded by a steam burst… only to be greeted by a horde of zombies (or a more neutral ending if preferred). It’s an unforgettable start to any haunt.

This isn’t just a visual effect—it’s a complete illusion of movement, crafted to create the sensation of descending deep below the surface. The genius lies in its simplicity: no motion platform required. Just set up a room with large LCD screens on one or both side walls, load up one of the included video sequences (1:20, 55 sec, or 35 sec), and watch your guests instinctively feel like they’re moving. Add synced effects like fog, lights, or air blasts via the Hi-Rez Relay Decoder, and the immersion reaches theme-park levels.

What We Love:

🚧 Immersive Pre-Show That Sets the Tone
Using this as an entry experience gives your entire haunt or attraction a strong narrative start. Guests genuinely feel like they’re being transported, which makes everything that follows more believable.

🧟‍♂️ Optional Zombie Ending
Not every haunt wants the undead—thankfully, Hi Rez includes both zombie and non-zombie endings, so you’re not locked into one theme. This flexibility makes the product work for dystopian, sci-fi, fallout, or industrial horror themes.

🎛️ Includes Control Panel & Decoder Signals
You’ll also receive small screen control panel videos for added realism. Combined with the encoded Hi-Rez Relay Decoder signals, this makes it easy to sync lights, fog, and air blasts right when things go haywire in the elevator.

Use Case Ideas:

• Haunt Entry Room: Use as the first “ride” of your attraction. Set up a faux elevator shaft with LCDs on both sides, dark walls, and exit doors that lead into your main maze.
• Escape Room Intro: Start your bunker or containment-themed escape room with this illusion to explain how players got underground.
• Pop-Up Haunt Transition: Use this effect to transport guests between scenes in a multi-room haunt or between different stories.
• Con Haunt or Trailer Setup: Since it doesn’t require mechanical parts, this effect is perfect for convention booths or mobile haunts that need fast, high-impact immersion.

Final Verdict:

Fright Elevator 2: Fallout Shelter is a masterclass in practical illusion. It’s easy to install, requires no moving parts, and creates a massive payoff in terms of immersion and guest engagement. With adjustable timing, multiple endings, and interactivity through the Hi-Rez Relay Decoder, it’s one of the most versatile scene-setters Hi Rez Designs has released—and it could easily become the most memorable part of your haunt.
